These are wonderful quotes, Sylvia. I definitely agree with the quote about grudges. It's to true. It often hurts the person holding the grudge more than the person who committed it.
Most people, by the time they get to be our age, know how true these two quotations are, Sylvia. Unfortunately, these truths have to be learned from experience, not just read, not just instructed, and not just from someone else's experience. Therefore, so many young people let grudges and/or greed dictate their thoughts and actions. Sad, but true. Nevertheless, your photos are beautiful, and inspirational. Thanks. Kay Alberta, Canada
Lovely photos, and so true about forgiveness setting us free. The grudge in the quote reminds me... When my daughter was about 10, she asked, "Mom, have you ever held a grub?" I was grappling with that, wondering why she was asking about a worm-like critter, when she added, "You know, like when you get mad at somebody for a long time?" After a few seconds, I realized she meant "grudge."
Sylvia, these quotes are lovely reminders of what is truly important.. and your heavenly photos give us pause to ponder them. Thanks for sharing, Have a delightful weekend.
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
